# Neo-Brutalism > "Brutalism, but make it pop. Hard lines, stark shadows, and vibrant, unashamed colors." ## When to Use Use this sub-style when the user's request matches the aesthetic described above. This is a child reference of the `design-it` skill and is not meant to be triggered directly. ## Core Principles 1. **Hard Drop Shadows**: Solid black shadows with no blur. Usually offset by a few pixels down and to the right. 2. **Thick Outlines**: Everything has a heavy, solid black border (usually 2px-4px). 3. **Flat, High-Contrast Colors**: Bright, saturated pastels or primary colors contrasting against pure white or black. ## Visual DNA - **Colors**: Start with an off-white background (like `#FDF8F5`), add stark black borders `#000000`, and use saturated accents like lemon yellow, bright cyan, or coral. - **Typography**: Very bold, geometric sans-serifs (e.g., `Space Grotesk`, `Archivo Black`, `Inter Black`). - **Shapes**: Sharp rectangles or completely rounded pill shapes, but always with a heavy stroke. ## Web Implementation - The defining feature is the `box-shadow` with `0` blur. - **CSS Example**: ```css :root { --neo-border: 3px solid #000000; --neo-shadow: 6px 6px 0px #0

Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
